A chirping machine. Seymour R.

We are told that social networks form addiction. We, users, are waiting for a new media sensation when “Laykay”, “sham” and write comments. We send signals to the system, and it answer us, offering a new consumer experience based on our fantasies, desires and weaknesses. This is a fearless look at the back of the digital life: trolling, network subcultures, an all -seeing big brother and our personal data stocked on the Facebook and Google servers, with which we generously divide our personal time.

Richard Seymour demonstrates that our network habits affect how we say, write, think. Using the methods of psychoanalysis, users and opinions of security experts on the Internet, Seymour shows how the system behaves in relation to a person and to what extent we ourselves are responsible for what has become with the global network.
